If you own a small business and have reached an earnings plateau, it might be time to think of taking on a challenge. What is a small business challenge? Anything you want it to be. You are in total control.​It all starts with setting a deadline for your goal. Say you decide on a three-month challenge. This is a good time frame for challenges because it is enough time to accomplish some pretty major things, but not so long that you reach a burnout and lose enthusiasm for reaching your goal.

Entrepreneurs are always looking for ways to increase their business, but forget about one key way.Community interaction can be golden for any entrepreneur. Many business start-ups forget about the magic of community that is right in front of them.

​Connecting with the community can provide many new opportunities and creates new customers that were never thought possible.
